What did you do in your workshop today ?

Also not wood related.

I put a new HD camera on the front of the garage to catch whichever numbnuts thinks it's ok to take eggs without paying for them.

I'll only need to catch them once.

I made one lovely Pharaoh which took me almost a year to complete. Was paid good anyway.

 

[skipdiver]

Pharaoh is amazing. Wouldn't know where to start with that project.

Still no answer. What if he never posts again? It will be The Mystery Of The Pharaoh!





Maybe he's in denial.

Maybe he's the one on the left?
On the right is the carving - touched up with paint? http://www.lorismarazzi.com/ A modern pharoah?

Its a Pyramid scam - but don't let his mummy know I said that.

Finally finished the drawers for the lathe bench.
I left the bottom position for 3 concrete blocks to weigh it all down.

 

[Phil Pascoe]

Very nice. Three concrete blocks? I've the bricks from seven night storage heaters in the bottom of mine. :lol:

It is only a little lathe .

Testing my new cabinet-making skills to the limit, we built this in pouring rain in the garden yesterday afternoon and this morning. A BMX ramp on the drive. If it lasts him til the end of the summer hols, all will have been good.

Love the dovetails, what did you use to make the draw pulls? I have been looking at the Wealden router bits: https://www.wealdentool.com/acatalog/Dr ... ll_77.html

I have a a cutter very similar to the small pull in the link you posted.
I take out most of the wood with a straight cutter then finish off with the drawer pull cutter. Be careful - the depth of cut is critical or you will end up with a step around the handle.

 

[MikeJhn]

Thanks for the post, but as with any Router bit, set up is critical to the finish obtained.
